Best of luck to you in the Navy. Training in San Antionio huh ... too cool. I grew up in San Antonio. As Zhann, the river walk is a cool and neat place to visit, the Alamo is in downtown SA too. There is El Mercado (Mexican shopping) near the river, shops all along the river and LOTS of very good eating too, as well as some decent bars. If you like jazz, there is Live at the Landing on the river as well. Lots to do and see and eat and drink .. and ........ LOL I feel a road trip comming up. yeah yeah.. I'm proud of my home town. btw I now live about 4 hours from there, college station. have fun and enjoy. regards, bob
